Letters Home from a Yankee Doughboy 1916-1919

Just after going through a very excited night. The Boche raided our town by air last night and did some damage. A few of our horses were killed and it lookes as if we boys will get some steak tonight as the butchers have already started to skin the dead animals. Honestly I was never nearer heaven in all my life. The weather here is wonderful and being that today is rest day I guess I will do some washing and writing. We boys are still very busy hiking and drilling six days a week. I was speaking to Bill Wulfooder and he sends his regards and speaks about you and John quite often.
